< Kings I 19 >

1 And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, to kill David.
Savel je spregovoril svojemu sinu Jonatanu in vsem svojim služabnikom, da naj ubijejo Davida.
2 And Jonathan, Saul's son, loved David much: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul seeks to kill you: take heed to yourself therefore to-morrow morning, and hide yourself, and dwell in secret.
Toda Savlov sin Jonatan se je zelo veselil v Davidu, in Jonatan je povedal Davidu, rekoč: »Moj oče Savel si prizadeva, da te ubije. Sedaj torej, prosim te, pazi nase do jutra in ostani na skritem mestu in se skrij,
3 And I will go forth, and stand near my father in the field where you shall be, and I will speak concerning you to my father; and I will see what his answer may be, and I will tell you.
jaz pa bom šel ven in stal poleg svojega očeta na polju, kjer si ti in se bom s svojim očetom posvetoval o tebi in kar vidim, to ti bom povedal.«
4 And Jonathan spoke favourably concerning David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against your servant David, for he has not sinned against you, and his deeds [are] very good.
Jonatan je svojemu očetu Savlu govoril dobro o Davidu in mu rekel: »Naj kralj ne greši zoper svojega služabnika, zoper Davida, ker on ni grešil zoper tebe in ker so bila njegova dela do tebe zelo dobra,
5 And he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great deliverance; and all Israel saw, and rejoined: why then do you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?
kajti ali ni svojega življenja položil v svojo roko in usmrtil Filistejca in je Gospod izvršil veliko rešitev duš za ves Izrael. Ti si to videl in si se veselil. Zakaj potem hočeš grešiti zoper nedolžno kri, da bi Davida ubil brez razloga?«
6 And Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore, saying, [As] the Lord lives, he shall not die.
Savel je prisluhnil Jonatanovemu glasu in Savel je prisegel: » Kakor živi Gospod, on ne bo umorjen.«
7 And Jonathan called David, and told him all these words; and Jonathan brought David in to Saul, and he was before him as in former times.
Jonatan je poklical Davida in Jonatan mu je pokazal vse te stvari. Jonatan je Davida privedel k Savlu in bil je v njegovi prisotnosti, kakor v preteklih časih.
8 And there was again war against Saul; and David did valiantly, and fought against the Philistines, and struck them with a very great slaughter, and they fled from before him.
Tam je bila ponovno vojna in David je odšel ven in se boril s Filistejci in jih usmrtil z velikim pokolom in oni so zbežali od njega.
9 And an evil spirit from God was upon Saul, and he was resting in his house, and a spear [was] in his hand, and David was playing on the harp with his hands.
Zli duh od Gospoda je bil nad Savlom, ko je sedel v svoji hiši, s svojim kopjem v svoji roki in David je igral s svojo roko.
10 And Saul sought to strike David with the spear; and David withdrew [suddenly] from the presence of Saul; and he drove the spear into the wall; and David retreated and escaped.
Savel si je prizadeval, da s kopjem udari Davida, celo k zidu, toda ta se je izmuznil iz Savlove prisotnosti in kopje je zapičil v zid, David pa je zbežal in tisto noč pobegnil.
11 And it came to pass in that night, that Saul sent messengers to the house of David to watch him, in order to kill him in the morning; and Melchol David's wife told him, saying, Unless you save your life this night, to-morrow you shall be slain.
Savel je tudi k Davidovi hiši poslal poslance, da ga stražijo in da ga zjutraj ubijejo. In Davidova žena Mihála mu je povedala, rekoč: »Če nocoj ne rešiš svojega življenja, boš jutri umorjen.«
12 So Melchol lets David down by the window, and he departed, and fled, and escaped.
Tako je Mihála Davida spustila navzdol skozi okno in odšel je, bežal ter pobegnil.
13 And Melchol took images, and laid them on the bed, and she put the liver of a goat by his head, and covered them with clothes.
Mihála pa je vzela kip in ga položila na posteljo in za njegov vzglavnik položila blazino iz kozje dlake in to pokrila z obleko.
14 And Saul sent messengers to take David; and they say that he is sick.
Ko je Savel poslal poslance, da primejo Davida, je rekla: »Bolan je.«
15 And he sends to David, saying, Bring him to me on the bed, that I may kill him.
Savel je ponovno poslal poslance, da vidijo Davida, rekoč: »Privedite ga gor k meni v postelji, da ga bom lahko ubil.«
16 And the messengers come, and, behold, the images [were] on the bed, and the goat's liver at his head.
Ko so poslanci vstopili, glej, je bil v postelji kip, z blazino iz kozje dlake za njegov vzglavnik.
17 And Saul said to Melchol, Why have you thus deceived me, and suffered my enemy to depart, and he has escaped? and Melchol said to Saul, He said, let me go, and if not, I will kill you.
Savel je rekel Miháli: »Zakaj si me tako zavedla in mojega sovražnika poslala proč, da je pobegnil?« Mihála je Savlu odgovorila: »Rekel mi je: ›Pusti me oditi; čemu bi te ubil?‹«
18 So David fled, and escaped, and comes to Samuel to Armathaim, and tells him all that Saul had done to him: and Samuel and David went, and lived in Navath in Rama.
Tako je David bežal, pobegnil in prišel k Samuelu v Ramo ter mu povedal vse, kar mu je Savel storil. In on in Samuel sta odšla ter prebivala v Najótu.
19 And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David [is] in Navath in Rama.
To je bilo povedano Savlu, rekoč, poglej: »David je pri Najótu v Rami.«
20 And Saul sent messengers to take David, and they saw the assembly of the prophets, and Samuel stood [as] appointed over them; and the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they prophesy.
Savel je poslal poslance, da primejo Davida. Ko pa so ti zagledali skupino prerokov, ki je prerokovala in Samuela stati kot določenega nad njimi, je bil Božji Duh nad Savlovimi poslanci in tudi oni so prerokovali.
21 And it was told Saul, and he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied: and Saul sent again a third set of messengers, and they also prophesied.
Ko je bilo to povedano Savlu, je poslal druge poslance in tudi ti so prerokovali. In Savel je ponovno, tretjič, poslal poslance in tudi ti so prerokovali.
22 And Saul was very angry, and went himself also to Armathaim, and he comes as far as the well of the threshing floor that is in Sephi; and he asked and said, Where [are] Samuel and David? And they said, Behold, in Navath in Rama.
Potem je tudi sam odšel v Ramo in prišel k velikemu vodnjaku, ki je v Sehuju. Vprašal je in rekel: »Kje sta Samuel in David?« Nekdo je rekel: »Glej, onadva sta pri Najótu v Rami.«
23 And he went thence to Navath in Rama: and there came the Spirit of God upon him also, and he went on prophesying till he came to Navath in Rama.
In odšel je tja k Najótu v Ramo in Božji Duh je bil tudi nad njim in šel je naprej in prerokoval, dokler ni prišel k Najótu v Ramo.
24 And he took off his clothes, and prophesied before them; and lay down naked all that day and all that night: therefore they said, [Is] Saul also amongst the prophets?
Tudi on je slekel svoja oblačila in na podoben način prerokoval pred Samuelom in ves ta dan in vso noč ležal gol. Zato pravijo: » Ali je tudi Savel med preroki?«
